We discovered this place about a month ago and let me tell you, this IS Mexico. From the decor, to the channels on the TV, to the kind staff and down to what we’re here for, the food. Absolutely amazing! Most authentic plates of Mexican food we’ve had ever in San Antonio.

We’ve been here 4 separate times (yes this past month and yes it’s that good) and every. Single. Time. The service and the food is a hit! I can’t tell you what to order because everything is made with SOUL! You’ll taste the love behind any bite you have here.

Not to mention super reasonably priced plates and SUPER well served. Places like these are rare. Places like these deserve business! This is a definite stop my friends!

It was our first time here, and we visited early on a Saturday morning for breakfast. When we arrived, the place was almost empty. We were seated right away, but the server didn’t come promptly.

We ordered the green chilaquiles with chicken and the huevos rancheros. The food tasted amazing but it took longer than expected for a half-empty restaurant. By the time we were almost finished, the side corn tortillas finally arrived, after requesting them several times.

We had fresh coffee, but when it came time for refills, the server was noticeably absent. We watched other tables receive full service, including chips and salsa, while nothing was brought to our table. When we were ready to pay, the server was nowhere to be found.

This location has previously been a vegetarian restaurant and a pizza place, and it shows. The Mexican restaurant appears to have reused the furniture and décor, which lacks the vibrant colors and warmth typically associated with Mexican culture. The décor feels inconsistent; tacky paintings mixed with industrial furniture, while the only clear Mexican touches were found near the restroom. The music and food felt Mexican, but unfortunately, the service did not reflect the warmth and hospitality you’d expect.

Maybe we just had a bad server, but overall, the experience didn’t leave us wanting to return. The place has a lot of potential given its location, but for now, we’ll pass.

Good luck next time.

El Catrín Mexican Cuisine in San Antonio is an excellent choice for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Mexican flavors in a relaxed yet classy atmosphere.

Their menu includes all the classic favorites—along with tasty appetizers and breakfast options—offering something for everyone. Although we weren’t given a drink menu, we did try the house margarita, and it paired perfectly with the chips and salsa.

The standout dish for us was the pozole. Hands down, it’s the best in San Antonio. We’ve tried pozole at several restaurants throughout the area, and El Catrín’s truly stands above the rest. We’ll be returning for it alone.

If you’re looking for a solid Mexican restaurant with great food and a welcoming vibe, we highly recommend El Catrín Mexican Cuisine.

Great Mexican food with outstanding salsa and sauces. The enchilada trio had three of the best sauces I’ve had in a while and was delicious. Service was friendly and helpful regarding allergies and brought everything quickly. My only complaint is the side of rice and beans was dull and could use more flavor especially compared with the rest of the meal. A great option for dinner in the area.

This place is a delight!
I had an early dinner here and loved everything about it. The food (vegetarian enchiladas, tres leches cake) was amazing. The service was prompt and friendly. And I loved the slightly understated decor.
The “La Catrina Margarita” was a bit underwhelming. I would recommend the Vampiro instead. But everything else was much better than I expected.

Good food and great service by Gerardo. Drinks are pricey though (12oz Coke $4.50) The nachos were awesome 10/10 and the cheese enchiladas were alright 6/10. The salsa for the chips is a 10/10 (you get free chips and salsa for the table).

I somehow missed the fact I had not done a review of this place…. Most certainly my go-to for authentic and great chilaquiles verdes. Everything is quite good but that is my poison…
